The DOD Overseas Military Banking Program: A Cost of Doing Business

Since the inception of the overseas military banking program, the Department of Defense has attempted to reduce continuous sudsidies in support of overseas military banking operations. Emphasis on improving effectiveness and reducing costs for services provided has been their primary objective. In a period where funding reductions and budget decrements are more common, the need to reduce the cost of military banking overseas is even more appropriate now than ever before.
